The problem is that ~/.cache/guile contains .go files that get loaded
and take precedence over the code being compiled (probably these files
exist because you used C-c C-k in Geiser or something similar).
However, some of these files are stale and expect a different ABI, hence
the error.

“rm -rf ~/.cache/guile/ccache” would solve the problem, but could you
instead try the attached patch and see if it solves the problem?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
